Chapter 982: Who Exactly is it?
Yu Linglong looked at Ling Feng: "These bas-reliefs were left by my father!"
She paused, then continued: "I’ve told you before, that the person we’ve been searching for everywhere is him!"
"..."
Ling Feng was stunned, only now understanding the situation.
However, he still had many doubts unresolved, so he asked: "How could your father be here?"
"I only realized it after looking at the bas-reliefs. He was once stranded on Earth, and he had stayed in every corner of this world for a period of time, before finally coming here, seeking a way to return to our side!" Yu Linglong said.
"Did he succeed?" Ling Feng hurriedly asked.
After asking, he felt how foolish this question was!
If he had successfully returned, why would Yu Linglong need to teleport here to find him?
Yu Linglong didn’t speak, her eyes fixed on the bas-reliefs, and finally, she murmured: "Unexpectedly, this place was his end."
"Huh?"
Ling Feng was taken aback and quickly asked: "Did he die?"
Yu Linglong’s face remained calm as she softly said: "Yes."
"But you don’t seem very sad?" Ling Feng asked.
"Unable to return to our world, departure may be the greatest relief. Look at the bas-reliefs; he entrusted his longing for us in them. It shows how much anguish my father must have felt while he was here," Yu Linglong said indifferently.
Seeing the solemn expression on her face, Ling Feng couldn’t help but ask: "Who exactly was your father?"
"He was our king!"
This time, Yu Linglong did not hide it, looking at him as she spoke.
"Then aren’t you..."
Yu Linglong nodded, "Yes, I am the Princess of Yu Ling Kingdom."
Ling Feng was dumbstruck, staring at her, momentarily at a loss for words.
At this moment, Yu Linglong had already squatted down, gently scratching some soil from the ground, then looking up asked: "Do you have a bottle?"
"For this? Yes, I do!"
Ling Feng nodded eagerly and took out a white porcelain bottle from his bracelet.
"Thank you."
Yu Linglong took it in her hands, solemnly placing the soil inside.
Ling Feng, seeing this, asked: "What are you doing?"
"My father turned to ash, he is in there." Yu Linglong’s face was expressionless as she secured the porcelain bottle.
Seeing her like this, Ling Feng felt that Yu Linglong was perhaps holding back her grief, and couldn’t help saying: "If you’re feeling uncomfortable, it might be better to cry out."
"I know, but there’s no need, thank you."
Yu Linglong said, turning her gaze back to the bas-reliefs: "Can you help me take pictures of these? Since I can’t take them with me, I want to look at them more in the future."
"If you really want to take them, I can think of a way!" Ling Feng said earnestly.
"How?"
Yu Linglong, somewhat interested, turned and asked.
"Build a Teleportation Array, send people to cut it into small pieces and take it away, then rebuild it once we return to Nine Heavens!" Ling Feng said.
"This..."
Yu Linglong pondered for a moment and shook her head: "It’s too big a task, let’s leave it here, after all, I can come here often!"
"That’s true, with that disc, you can come anytime you want. I’ll give it to you later!" Ling Feng said.
"Thank you!"
Yu Linglong nodded and stretched out her hand to touch the figure on the bas-relief.
However, just then, the bas-relief suddenly began to emit specks of starlight!
Both of them were startled, unaware of what had happened, only to find everything blur before their eyes, and then they were back in the Second Layer Heaven!
When they left, they were at the edge of the forest, and upon returning, they found themselves there again.
"Uncle, you’re back?"
Seeing the two, Li Fei’er asked with a smile.
Ling Feng scratched his head and glanced at her and Li Shiyun, "Why? Aren’t you guys worried?"
"Worried about what?" Both asked simultaneously.
"I and she were gone for more than two days, weren’t you worried?" Ling Feng asked.
Li Fei’er pouted, "What’s there to worry about? You couldn’t possibly get into any trouble!"
Ling Feng: "..."
After being left speechless, he turned to look at Yu Linglong: "Worried for nothing!"
"Isn’t it better not to worry? Let’s quickly check out that disk!" Yu Linglong reminded.
"Alright."
Ling Feng took out the disk and handed it over to her: "I said I would give it to you, so you better have a look!"
"This..."
Yu Linglong was astonished, not expecting him to hand it over so directly.
Knowing that there were maps of five locations inside, which allowed for teleportation to any of them, it was indeed very significant!
Ling Feng cherished it deeply, unexpectedly he didn’t seem to care.
Yu Linglong felt a surge of emotion, thus she quickly said, "Thank you!"
"No need to be polite, you taught me the Compendium of Array Formations and the Mind Soul Art, I haven’t even thanked you yet!" Ling Feng said with a smile.
Yu Linglong smiled broadly: "Does this mean we’re even now?"
"Exactly, even!" Ling Feng nodded.
Li Shiyun and Li Fei’er rarely saw Yu Linglong smile, seeing her like this, both couldn’t help but exchange glances.
Li Fei’er gave a meaningful look, winking secretly.
Li Shiyun understood, turning to look at Ling Feng and Yu Linglong, her eyes filled with profound meaning.
She knew something must have happened when these two went to explore the remaining maps!
However, looking at them, it seemed they had just gotten a bit closer, nothing substantial had actually occurred.
Thus, with a flick of her eyes, she smiled and said, "No need for so much politeness, did you find anything this time?"
"Nothing yet, but the mystery will soon be uncovered. All five maps are open now, so something new should happen!" Ling Feng said.
"Why not let me have a look right now!"
Yu Linglong spoke and her Divine Sense immediately entered the disk.
After checking the maps, she found no changes, just that all five were unlocked and could perform teleportation freely.
So she looked up at Ling Feng and Li Shiyun and said, "Strange, no changes at all!"
"That stele might be the key, I’ll go find someone to decipher it later and see if we can figure out what it says!" Ling Feng said.
"Okay!"
Yu Linglong nodded, then said, "I want to go back and spend some time alone; come find me when you understand what’s on the stele!"
Ling Feng nodded, "Alright, I’ll do it as soon as possible!"
Watching her leave, Ling Feng was also about to walk away, but seeing the unusual looks from Li Shiyun and Li Fei’er, he couldn’t help but ask, "What’s up?"
"Uncle, do you confess on your own, or should I force a confession out of you?" Li Fei’er asked cheekily.
"Uh..."
Ling Feng instantly realized what she wanted to know, hence he smiled and said, "I’ll tell you whatever you want to know, so no need for torturing!"
Li Fei’er giggled, "Smart choice!"
